NFL fans love it when a great player gives their list of the best players at a particular position.
Or, it at least gives the fans something to debate with their friends.
In a recent appearance on The Rush Podcast, Raiders All-Pro wide receiver Davante Adams listed his top four wide receivers of all time.
“Randy (Moss) is the greatest…You got Jerry Rice…I gotta say Calvin (Johnson)…I’m gonna go T.O. (Terrell Owens),” Adams said.

For anybody that wants to argue with Adams or say the he doesn’t know what he is talking about, he is a six-time Pro-Bowler and on his way to having a Hall of Fame career himself.
Going to his list, Randy Moss led the NFL in receiving five times and made six Pro Bowls.
He holds the NFL record for most touchdowns in a season (23; 2007) and had over 1,000 yards receiving in 10 of his 14 seasons.
Jerry Rice, according to the numbers, is the greatest wide receiver to have ever played.
The 13-time Pro-Bowler holds many NFL records, including career receptions (1,549) and career receiving yards (22,895).
He is a member of the NFL’s 75th and 100th Anniversary Team.
Calvin Johnson was a physical specimen.
Despite playing just nine seasons, the six-time Pro-Bowler is a member of the league’s 2010s All-Decade Team and holds the NFL record for most receiving yards in a season (1,964; 2012).
Finally, Terrell Owens caught over 150 touchdowns and made six Pro Bowls in his career.
He led the league in receiving touchdowns three times and was voted to the league’s 2000s All-Decade Team.
All of these receivers are in the Pro Football Hall of Fame.
This list isn’t too shabby from Adams.
